Yes I have been to America and seen the non working rich you speak of. Living in high style off the federal governments teat. They must sleep in the streets, doorways and under bridges because housing is so expensive.

Apparently health care and dental care must be right up there too, because that does seem to be a major issue with the people I saw sleeping outside with their shopping cards and cardboard. Is food really really too expensive for someone making over 100k a year?...because they seem kinda skinny. I could be wrong though. They were probably health nuts who just prefer living like bums.
